I just upgraded to Tiger as well. It keeps asking me to login for the RSS feed for features I'm not interested in...very annoying. How do I stop this?
Can someone please call me a cheeky swine or similar... as well?

Cheeky swine.

Here's a piece on how to turn off RSS feeds in Safari. I don't like this built-in feature because I also use Bloglines, like the author of the following guide:

How to Disable the Safari RSS Feature

If you don't use Safari as an RSS Feed reader (I use bloglines), the feature can get kind of annoying. Every time you click on an RSS feed, it is redirected to a feed:// url. So to disable it, you need to first enable the Debug menu on Safari, this is done by typing the following into the Terminal (via mac osx hints:

defaults write com.apple.Safari IncludeDebugMenu 1
Make sure you quit safari before running that command.

Then you simply need to select Turn off RSS Support in the Debug menu in Safari:

See the link for photos and more details.

Thanks... I didn't know what terminal was...but now I know after a search and I realize that's for Unix Code?
Now that I turned RSS off... I have to figure out how to make my network stop asking me to log on!
Thanks again.

Another question... this time regarding the new search on Tiger.
The thread that shows the location of what you have searched...is that only available in a horizontal format? I cannot figure out how to make it a vertical list.
Is this possible?
